Re: '93 firebird with no heat

New question. Is there any negative effect to removing the flow restrictor in the heater hose from the water pump to the heater core. This is the 3/4" line that gets restricted down to about 1/4". I had a leak in this hose and i intend on replacing the rubber part of this hose and not the metal portions. My intent was to replace this with a 3/4" hose with no restrictor. Is there any problem with this? Any help is appreciated

I would leave it and just flush the system real good.
